Three Countries in One Day

Three Countries in One Day

Accomplished something big on this day. Managed to be in three countries at once, thanks to the Dreiländerbrücke, which connects Germany, Switzerland, and France. Neil has a fantastic video of Jess trying to figure out which country is where. Yes, it IS possible for France to be here, there, and everywhere.

At this point, we've pretty much acknowledged that Switzerland is the following:

  • Insanely beautiful
  • Very good with bike signs (Germany, take note. White lettering against a red background is easier to read than green lettering against a white background)
  • SO VERY HILLY

Another heads down day that culminated in us cycling through Switzerland into Germany and back again 6 times in the course of 10 minutes due to random, miscellaneous enclaves. Stopped for lunch in Lake Konstanz, where it actually snowed for 20 minutes during lunch.

Wet Rats in Steinach, Switzerland

No photos taken because we were heads down. It rained all day. Jess got attacked by a dog and fell twice. Neil's brakes refused to stop rubbing, and he eventually had to ride without front ones. Hypothermia was imminent.
